Phase 1: Assessing Prior Knowledge

We would assess prior knowledge by leading a casual class discussion. The questions would include: What is immigration/emigration?, Why would they come to the United States? What is Ellis Island? What is Angel Island? What is the Statue of Liberty and what does it stand for? The teacher will use webspiration to display the students' thoughts. Depending on what the students' prior knowledge is regarding the topics, we will focus more on what they do not know/confused about and focus less on what they already know.
